The Share Is the Factor: Fluctuation Theorems in the Sever Unit, and the Demon at the Bounce
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: AF-3 evaluated Maxwell's demon in the frame's currency and isolated the denomination: discriminating the sever's pair {200, 211} is worth u = log₂(211/200) = 0.077243 bits. This paper denominates the fluctuation theorems — Crooks and Jarzynski — in that unit, and the denomination turns out to be load-bearing: one unit of entropy production is suppressed by exactly the share ratio, P(−u)/P(+u) = 200/211, because the unit is the logarithm of the share. The Jarzynski factor at one unit of free energy is the same number: ⟨e^(−W/kT)⟩ = 200/211 exactly. The sever's founding asymmetry and the fluctuation theorems' suppression factor are one object read in two dialects. The paper then carries AF-3's demon to the one temperature the frame owns outright — the bounce, T_b = 2.667914×10¹³ K from ħ/τ_b = 2.29903 GeV — where the Landauer bill per bit is 1.593566 GeV, the erasure power floor at the cell rate is 1.151744×10¹⁴ W per channel, and the Szilard gain and the Landauer bill still cancel to zero: the demon is metered even at the bounce, at the universe's highest owned temperature, by the same arithmetic.
